Hector or Edgar?

My partner favours Edgar and I favour Hector. We both would tolerate each others' choice.

I can't decide which to go for; really worried about getting it wrong and having regrets.

I'm certainly not trying to make a fashion statement! Thanks again for all your comments.

Hector all the way! Mighty Trojan warrior.

Edgar in King Lear was a right drip.

And incidentally all names are strange/statementy when you just haven't heard them before and haven't read The Iliad

Victoria was made-up
Elizabeth was some insanely obscure Biblical name no-one used before Queenie

Etc. etc.

Do it OP!
